If the Shoe fits

This hilarious book is about Abby and Jonah who get magically transported to Cinderella's fairytale. They do not want to mix up Cinderella's fairytale like they did to Snow White's fairytale, but something really bad happened to Cinderella's foot. It got swelled up. Read this book to find out what Abby and Jonah do to help Cinderella.

I loved this book because it was inventive, hilarious, and full of adventures and suprises. My favorite part was when Betty the evil stepmother magically transforms Abby and Jonah into mice, so when they speak they squeak instead. I did not like the character Betty, she was exactly like the evil queen in Snow White's fairytale. The stepmother Betty also tried to hurt Cinderella just like the evil queen.

I highly recommend this book to 4th and 5th grade students who like books that are inventive, hilarious, and full of adventures and suprises. This book will keep them on the edge of their seat.
